109 Strange Sound (1/2)
Learning that Bata was basically an A.I wasn't super shocking for Desmond since it was the most rational thing Desmond had encountered in Theotera. Desmond was a bit shocked by the tidbit of info Bata did tell him. He had no idea how he ended up in Seraphine and Ragnar's home let alone why they took him to the moon of all places. What happened at the steel mill was somewhat of a blur to Desmond in some parts, but overall he remembered what happened. In the end, no matter how he rationalized the situation he just couldn't see himself running to Seraphine and Ragnar's shop for help in the middle of the night.
”How did I ended up here”
[You were brought here by Mr. Zane]
”Who's Mr. Zane,” Desmond asked unknowingly as he scratched the left side of his cheek.
[Mr. Zane is the man you met on your second visit to Hunter's Bizarre. He is tall, has a sickening aura, and almost killed you the first time you met him].
”Oh so it was him he's ...”
[An ass hole] Bata said interrupting Desmond as he was speaking.
[He was the one who brought you to the Hunter's bizarre at the request of Seraphine. Which he completed after throwing you face first threw the store's display window].
Desmond wasn't sure how to feel about Zane after hearing that. On one hand, he saved Desmond's life on the other the man is a Sociopathic ass hole.
Desmond knowing he could do nothing to change what had happened so he decided to move on from that subject. ”Why was I brought to the moon?”.
[This is Seraphine and Ragnar's real home, Hunter's Bizarre is connected to here by a gate. You were brought here because you needed to be treated. Every part of your body was burnt to a crisp. If you weren't a soul possessing a persons body you would have been dead in the true sense of the word. If not for Seraphine's kind heart you would have been captured, imprisoned, and because of how unique you are. You would have also been experimented on and enslaved at best if not sold to the highest bidder].
”So, my secrets have been exposed. Well, I already guessed that those three would have found out eventually ever since I learned Seraphine was an assassin”. Desmond could only sigh and accept the situation. Everywhere he turned he was outclassed and outgunned. It didn't matter if it was resources, knowledge, allies, or techniques Desmond just could compare to anyone. Desmond always found himself in a pathetic state, but at least his situation wasn't completely unsalvageable.
